I am looking for some info on swingarms. I know the 86/87 and 88/89 used different length swingarms, etc. I'm no 250R expert so I'm looking for some help.

I currently have an R that I TT race, and I'm wanting to switch it back to an MX setup. When I bought the bike it was set up for MX. I took the swingarm off and sold it, and replaced it with a shorter one. If I remember right the one that was on it was a Lonestar and 18 1/2" long and the one I have on it now is a Laeger and is 16 1/2" long. I use the 88/89 style swingarm.

Here's the spec's of the bike
LRD aluminum frame, stock linkage
Laeger Pro Trax
350PV

I really just need to know what length swingarm do I actually need?

If anyone has a swingarm that fits my needs let me know. I would prefer a Laeger, but would consider others.

Thanks!

thats the perfect size...

lonestar racing suggests for motocross that the 86-87 250r's use a -1 swingarm and the 88-89 uses the stock length.

Ok.... but I want to know the actual length of the stock 88/89 swingarm?

1promodfan- How much for your Lonestar swingarm?
